In this Article, the author finds that the Civil Rights Movement, which operates in a primarily \"Black v. white\" paradigm, is ill-equipped to deal with an increasingly multiracial and multicultural America. In particular, the influx of great numbers of new immigrants from Asia and Latin America-who are neither Black nor whitecalls for the Civil Rights Movement to re-evaluate its current framework. The author describes the phenomena of anti-immigrant legislation and political scapegoating which has resulted from the changing demographic landscape, and explores the mutual misunderstandings which have arisen between Blacks and the newer \"coloreds. \" The Article argues that these prejudices have prevented the formation of a multiracial civil rights coalition. The author suggests that racism is the common threat which links together Blacks, Asians, and Latinos, as nativism and anti-immigrant sentiment are rooted in racism. The author advocates for a renewed Civil Rights Movement, one which replaces the more restrictive biracial vision with a new vision which encompasses the new immigrants.","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116035587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the past seven years, I have followed the news coverage of the Wayne Lo case with increasing interest, not only because Wayne and I are both Chinese American, born in the same year, and raised under similar circumstances, but because the degrees of separation have unwittingly decreased between us. My husband Dan was Wayne's childhood friend, one who slept over at his house and shared adolescent confessions about girls, sex, and religion. Wayne's mother and father are longtime friends of my in-laws and serve as Dan's godparents. Our families have exchanged letters and photographs over the years and managed to pretend that while we graduated from college, married, and landed our first jobs, a young man in a Massachusetts prison did not exist. Early in law school, I began to think about Wayne more frequently. I prodded Dan for details about the young killer, hoping to discover any clues to Wayne's perplexing identity. Slowly, I arrived at a theory, not about why he killed that chilly day in December, but about how his race may have influenced his conviction and the denial of his appeal. In this paper, I will examine the racial imagery surrounding Wayne Lo's trial as an example of how stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans influence the criminal justice system. In Part I, I offer two prevailing categories of stereotypes, the \"model minority\" and \"yellow peril,\" and highlight their criticisms. In Part II, I discuss how these stereotypes potentially influence legal actors in cases involving both Asian American victims and defendants. Finally, in Part III, I return to the Wayne Lo case and propose an explanation of how racial stereotyping may have colored","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"519 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116252446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the outset, it is important to recognize the breadth of the impact language-based discrimination has upon the immigrant community and upon Asian Pacific Americans in particular. We must understand the size, growth, and the demographic characteristics of the Asian American population. Between 1980 and 1990, this population has virtually doubled, increasing by 95%. According to the 1990 census, the majority of Asian Pacific Americans are of immigrant background; 27% of them are limited in English language proficiency. In California, one out of three residents speaks a foreign language at home. It should come as no surprise that the color, culture, and sound of the workplace, along with the population of California generally, is changing rapidly. Nor should it come as a surprise that our response to those changes is anti-immigrant backlash. That backlash takes many forms, Proposition 187 being one of them. One of the more prevalent manifestations of social tension we are witnessing as this transformation takes place is language-based discrimination. Language discrimination poses a new set of questions and challenges. There are aspects of language discrimination and other forms of national origin discrimination which are different from traditional race discrimination. Discrimination against immigrants and national origin minorities, unlike traditional forms of race discrimination, are not necessarily based on the color of one's skin; rather, it is often based on certain conditions associated with one's immigrant status and/or ethnicity. The discrimination is targeted at one's \"foreignness.\" Perhaps the most salient aspect of that foreignness is one's language, whether it be one's primary (or only) language or accent. Language-based discrimination can be an easy proxy for race dis-","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126194643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
